Sophie returns to her shop & a mysterious, oddly terrifying woman appears. We then see that the things following Howl came from a person being carried around in a palanquin (!!). Lettie informs her that the witch of the waste has also been out & about recently. She doesn’t even like making hats and just feels responsible for the shop as the oldest. Sophie finally meets her sister Lettie, the local hottie & we once again see that Sophie has low self esteem. Everything about this scene is perfect, please take a moment to respect that. This is where we get the most iconic scene of the movie, no plot relevance but it establishes that Howl is the hottest Ghibli man. He offers to escort her to her destination, and this is where we learn he’s being followed for some reason. She then gets hit on by 2 soldiers when bae appears.Ī very extravagant-looking Howl comments that he’s been looking for her ( this is very important) and that she’s with him, so back off bitches. As she moves around Town, we see that there is some sort of military celebration happening. Sophie gets sick of working (same) and leaves to find her sister. As the other ladies prepare to leave the store, one of them remarks that Howl once tore a woman’s heart out.
She’s your average girl and doesn’t think much of herself (the scene of her trying her hat & cringing is honestly Me IRL). The movie starts with Sophie creating beautiful hats quietly in her store while looking at Howl’s castle passing. Here’s a run down of the plot, and perhaps a few things you may have missed that have left you confused.
Well fret not, friend, for I was also fairly confused the first time I watched what is now one of my favourite films. If you’ve found this, you’ve probably just watched Howl’s Moving Castle and are thinking, “huh?”.
